Department of Health and Social Care

The complainant has requested information relating to a meeting that took place between the Secretary of State and the Phoenix Partnership (TPP). The DHSC provided some information but withheld some documents under sections 41 and 43 FOIA. The Commissioner’s decision is that the four documents provided by TPP have been correctly withheld under section 41 FOIA and the remaining two documents produced by the DHSC (a briefing note and minutes) have been correctly withheld under section 43 FOIA. The Commissioner does not require any steps.
